Wittenberg Prof Offers to Carry XO Laptops to Lesotho

Director Sherrie Howey contacted Dr. Scott Rosenberg of Wittenberg University recently regarding carrying XO laptops to Lesotho again.  His students took most of our 2011 XO laptops to Lesotho in June and July last year, saving us the cost of shipping them.  Scott & his students will be going to Lesotho in December this year, and Scott has agreed to carry as many as they have room for.  THANK YOU Scott and THANK YOU Wittenberg students!!!!  Your help is greatly appreciated.
